New York City, NY (PRWEB)May 01, 2014

PR, marketing, social media and technology are inextricably bound and constantly evolving. Brands and clients are either benefiting from these crosscurrents, are caught in the crossfire—or both. That’s why PR professionals should not miss the highly acclaimed Social Media Summit & Taste of Tech, which will be held on June 3, 2014, at the Grand Hyatt in New York City. Register soon- the early bird rate ends Thursday, May 8.

At this unique one-day event, attendees will be treated to the brightest minds in social media willing to share secrets and strategies on social media brand leadership. Additionally, as it is difficult to gauge which technologies and services will work best for brands, “Taste of Tech,” a unique element of the Summit, will feature partners who “get PR” and can help make social initiatives more impactful.

Speakers include professionals from such organizations as Mashable, IBM, Los Angeles World Airports, AECOM, Weber Shandwick, PBS, GrubHub Inc., Cisco, CBS News, CareCloud and more. Additionally, Ian Greenleigh, who writes and speaks about changing audience-brand relationships and the radically shifting landscapes of access and influence and tackles this problem head-on in his recently published book, “The Social Media Side Door: How to Bypass the Gatekeepers to Gain Greater Access and Influence,” will present the keynote address. He will share insights and tips to reach your target audiences in his presentation, "How to Connect With the Social Media Audiences That Matter to You Most."
